Medical science has taken great strides forward. However, the vulnerability to many diseases like cancer, remain. Thus, billions of dollars are spent on researching alternative cancer cure treatments every year through out the world. Alternative cancer cure encompasses methods, natural and otherwise, that go beyond the traditional realm of surgery, radiation or chemotherapy. Some of them are: Physical Touch method Amidst the varied alternative cancer cure methods, Manual Healing or the Physical Touch method is widely known. In its arsenal, you have the age-old Chinese practice of Acupuncture. Here needles are put in the skin into specific energy flow ways in order to balance it. Though it is a debatable point whether Acupuncture can actually cure cancer, it has been to be a definite pain alleviator. Reiki The Japanese observation of Reiki is another alternative cancer cure methodology, which also works along similar lines. A Reiki master can unclog your congested energy pathways to relieve you of the pain of the disease and the treatment. Chiropractic Chiropractic provides a remedy for musculoskeletal disorders by working on the spine and the neck. Chiropractors believe that this boosts the immune system by restoring the bodily balance that had gone haywire due to cancer. Massages Massages, though not proven effective as a cancer cure, provide relief from pain and discomfort. Nutritional Therapy Amongst the other kinds of alternative cancer remedy, Nutritional Therapy is the most widely publicized. It has been medically proved that some food prevent and can even cure some cancer forms like breast cancer. In fact, recent discoveries point out to the cancer-combating agents present in fruits like pomegranates and red berries. Naturopathy and Homeopathy Naturopathy and Homeopathy are grounded on similar lines. Both therapies believe in achieving bodily harmony, which in turn rouses the self-healing process, which can relieve the symptoms of many forms of cancer like prostate, colon, liver or skin. The core difference in these two cancer remedy methods lies in their modus operandi. While Homeopathy is almost like vaccination, wherein trace amounts of cancer-inducing agents are introduced in the body in an attempt to trigger a defense mechanism to combat the disease, Naturopathy is actually an amalgamation of various methods like Homeopathy, usage of herbal substances or electrical treatment to achieve the requisite bodily balance. Other upcoming alternative treatments include: While many alternative cancer treatment methods agree to the use of natural processes, some like the oxygen and ozone therapies profess the injection of oxygen and ozone to retard the growth of cancer cells and even have them transmute into normal cells. Recently gaining ground in the dominion of alternative cancer treatment methodologies is the Bristol Approach, combining physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual therapies, aimed at corporal and mental well being. Its underlying philosophy shares ground with many holistic lines of treatment. These empower the mind to control the bodily processes. The Bristol Approach also incorporates numerous self-help techniques to aid the cancer patient during this treatment period. The synergistic effect of these alternative cancer cure methods is far greater than when used in seclusion. The alternative treatment is doubly effective when used in conjunction with some conventional mode of cancer remedy.

Cancer Alternative Treatments – Try the Sun
Cancer is probably everyone’s biggest fear. If you’re like me, every time you have a lump or bump or any unusual pain, this is the first thing that pops into your mind and you imagine the worst. It is likely that whatever problem you have is probably not going to turn out to be anything serious, but for those that are actually diagnosed with this dread disease, you may be looking for cancer alternative treatments in order to avoid the harsh toxins of traditional chemotherapy. If you begin searching, you will find many natural therapies that are used along with a number of holistic treatments. One thing that many people do not realize is the sun itself can help you avoid cancer, or once diagnosed, can help you heal. For many many years, everyone has heard over and over to “protect yourself from the sun,” use sunscreen, don’t stay outside too long, and avoid ultraviolet rays. However, studies are beginning to show that just the opposite is true! What only a few people have realized is the fact that the sun is actually beneficial. In truth, it is vitally needed! The ultraviolet rays, long thought to be harmful, actually cause the skin to produce vitamin D which is very important for protecting against and treating many types of cancers. Now, you may say, “Well, I take a synthetic vitamin D supplement,” but these can actually pose a danger in themselves. The best and safest way to supply your body with this vitamin is through natural sunshine without using sunscreen. What about skin cancer? Studies indicate that since this is one of the least deadly cancers, it is worth the small risk to avoid the deadlier versions. So if you are looking for safe cancer alternative treatments, try taking a break from the computer screen and going outside for about 15 minutes every day, or if that is not possible, at least 3 to 4 times a week, and you will reap the benefits of vitamin D, the natural cancer fighter. But remember that it is still important to avoid burning, however, so if you are going to be outside for an extended period of time (hours), you may want to apply a natural chemical-free sunscreen.
The Scoop On An Alternative Treatment for Pancreatic Cancer
Just a few years ago a friend of mine was told that he had pancreatic cancer. He knew that something was wrong with his body, but the problem just didn’t seem that bad, so he waited three months before going to his doctor. After telling him that he had inoperable pancreatic cancer, the doctor also told him that he had waited too long before coming in and only had about three months to live. As my friend found out, pancreatic cancer tends to be very aggressive and very quick to spread. For these reasons an alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer is necessary to have if patients are going to have any hope of getting better. The conventional treatments of radiation therapy and chemo therapy weren’t appropriate for my friend because the cancer had spread through so much of his body. It was just plain too late. A lot of people who get pancreatic cancer don’t even know what it is that the pancreas does. The pancreas is vital first of all, because it produces an enzyme called trypsin that helps us digest cooked food. You see, when we cook our food, we also destroy the enzymes in the food that would have helped us digest it. The other more commonly known function of the pancreas is to produce the insulin to break down the glucose in our systems. An insufficient amount of this insulin results in diabetes. Now, on to the alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer. This treatment has its origins clear back in the time of Hippocrates, known as the father of modern medicine. His cure for any cancer was garlic and onions. He didn’t know why it worked, he just knew it did. As it turns out, garlic and onions are alkaline in nature. The importance of this fact was noted in1924 when Dr. Otto Warburg wrote in a paper that cancer could not exist in the presence of oxygen. Since garlic and onions are both alkaline, they both tend to have oxygen in them. Hippocrates’s cure explained! The findings that Dr. Warburg had put forward were quickly forgotten by the mainstream medical community, but they have evolved into an alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer and all other cancers. How can you or I apply this alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer? Simple, if you have pancreatic cancer, you should change your diet so that you aren’t consuming highly acidic foods and only eat alkaline foods or foods that are only slightly acidic. You can check the ph of your foods by going online and getting a food chart. If changing the diet isn’t working fast enough, a supplement must be used. Calcium is an ideal supplement because it is alkaline and it is what’s known as a buffer. In other words, just a little calcium can neutralize a lot of acid. There is a huge list of benefits that calcium has on the body. For just a partial list of calcium’s benefits, go to cureamerica.com. In order to properly absorb the calcium, it’s necessary to also take a vitamin D supplements. In their book, “The Calcium Factor” Dr. Carl Reich and Robert Barefoot recommend at least 5,000 I.U.s per day of Vitamin D along with six capsules of coral calcium as an alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer or any other kind of cancer. Cesium chloride is another supplement that can be used to raise alkaline levels in the body. It very effective because it has a very high alkaline ph (14). You should add this to your alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer because it has very large molecules that get trapped inside the cancer cells making them very alkaline. There is one problem though, because it is so alkaline, it’s actually very caustic and can harm the human body so a doctor should be consulted before using this substance. Most M.D.s don’t normally look for the cause of a problem, they are just trained in treating the result of the problem. The beauty of this alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer is that not only is the problem addressed, but the cause, an acidic body is addressed also. Not treating the cause is just one reason so many people have cancer again within five years of successfully receiving conventional treatment. Another reason is that conventional treatments actually cause cancer by damaging the immune system. . People that survive more than five years after their conventional treatments are usually the ones who inadvertently have switched to a more alkaline diet. They have stopped eating the junk food, the processed food and have decided to eat more green vegetables (many of which are alkaline by the way).
